My No Engine Fan Experiment, W124 300D,

is going pretty well.

I had to go to work today but I hadn't yet received my new fan or fan clutch yet.

I did a test run last night in 58-60F weather and the engine never overheated at highway speeds and when I was in traffic I just turned the defroster on max heat though it wasn't really necessary.

Then today I drove about 150 miles in weather up to 77F.

I never even got close to overheating.

I will say that this is with a new water pump, thermostat, radiator, Zerex G-05 coolant mixture and RedLine Water Wetter.

Is this supposed to work?
